It says something that Barack Obama was so well-acquitted in the first presidential debate on Friday, that many a conservative commentator acknowledged his poise and presidential stature without hesitation.
It says that Obama was so good that even those who normally champ at the bit to diminish him had to concede that he dispelled any lingering doubts about his readiness.
It says Obama must have been twice as good as the pundits attest, because only such an utter triumph can bring the partisans to bow.
It also says that John McCain is a goner. The man we once respected as the maverick, iconoclast, independently spirited, tell-it-like-it-is rebel, is no more. The senator who was once upon a time so beguiling that, in a moment of weakness many years ago, got a diehard liberal like me to say to his face that if he ever ran for president, I might work for him -- that man is vapor.
